Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • EcholoN Service Management has unexpectedly optimised our process flows in customer service and support. As a modern industrial company, we were looking for a solution that would support us in making customer service more efficient. EcholoN has fulfilled all our expectations. The software is incredibly powerful and has all the features we need to manage and respond quickly to our customer requests. We especially appreciate the possibility of flexible workflows and the great full-text search and retrieval which gives us a lot of confidence "in our" EcholoN. The cooperation with EcholoN's customer support was also excellent. They helped us set up the software and gave us tips on how to use EcholoN better. The software is also very user-friendly and easy to learn, which saved us a lot of time and effort. Another advantage of EcholoN is the ability to create analyses and reports. These features have helped us to optimise our processes and increase customer satisfaction. We can now identify trends and patterns in tickets and operations and adjust our work accordingly.
  • Thanks to its maximum flexibility, EcholoN can be optimally adapted to individual processes. Both the import and export of data can be easily managed via interfaces: from external systems (e.g. inventory) into EcholoN and from EcholoN to third-party systems. A web-based access to EcholoN is set up for external development and thus supports our change process.
  • Ease of use: Even new employees can quickly find their way around EcholoN, as it is easy to use and only requires basic information on internal processes. Templates and controlled workflows support the processes and daily work. The possibility of working with templates and the use of controlled workflows is particularly helpful in daily work.
  • In the beginning we were looking for an uncomplicated internal helpdesk system and during SYSTEMS 2004 the person in charge at that time became aware of EcholoN. Priorities used to be as follows: Web Client / Web App for employees and Selfhelp for customers / WebServices, Knowledgebase, Asset Management. and LifeCycle Management. Especially for the inventory, we wanted a solution that is both simple and - according to our requirements - expandable: for example, a device and location management, product generation incl. serial no. and barcode, the possibility of printing and mass processing. And preferably everything automated. Of importance were the functions for escalation (automatic monitoring of the workflow, generation of tickets, management of e-mails, monitoring of tickets with escalation), as well as the option to define different ticket statuses and individual workflows. Some of the terms mentioned seem outdated nowadays. However, EcholoN is not. The product can be customised for each client, regular updates and contemporary innovations are available without restrictions.
  • After these years with the many innovations to be operated as well as the changes in the market and our own company requirements, I can only say: we made the right decision to introduce such a flexible tool. It simply keeps up and is always expandable. EcholoN is dynamic, steady and keeps its promises! Pros: The fact that we can grow together Initially, we only wanted a contact centre solution: German-language product, ITIL-based, SQL DB, very good interface concept with a fully developed ETL tool and many standard connectors, easily customisable processes, standard workflows and simple interface design for the most diverse use cases, escalation, reporting etc.. This became a ticket and helpdesk system, an IT service management with service portal for internal IT and then an enterprise service management for the entire VIVANTES landscape (hospitals, individual departments, laboratories, medical practices, rehabilitation clinics, warehouse, purchasing, logistics). The HR department got enthusiastic and implemented its "HR-Digital" project with EcholoN. The demand is constantly increasing and in the course of digitalisation, a central solution for the entire company was sought. EcholoN won the Europe-wide tender "Solution for mapping digital processes".

Cons

  • It is important to understand that implementing a service management solution is not an easy task and to take the time to think through the process. It is best to start with the predefined standards. Don't change everything at once and let the colleagues from EcholoN do their consulting. Listen and also rethink sometimes, allow for new things. ;)
  • We are always able to implement all requirements: Either alone or together with mIT solutions.
  • At first, EcholoN seems complex. Once you get used to it and understand the idea, it is easy. It should also be considered that the system allows you to design all process requirements and use cases on your own.
  • The extent to which EcholoN can be set up depends on the respective requirements. It is due to our own desire for constant improvement that implementation sometimes takes a little more time. In any case, project management and support are available to assist. As soon as the product has been fully adapted to individual preferences, I am happy to make EcholoN's best recommendations - due to its high flexibility and ease of use. Although the manufacturer (mIT solutions GmbH) is currently operating under the motto "web first", the Windows client is not forgotten. Unfortunately, the innovations and release notes tend to contain references to the web client. The manufacturer will inform you on request whether a desired implementation can be realised in the following or one of the later versions.
  • EcholoN offers many possibilities, i.e. you want to use these possibilities: preferably all of them and immediately Always keep a cool head and go step by step!
